    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The series is pretty epic. It flips the script on British history, if you are looking for historical accuracy this is not for you. The salacious spectacle, the grand costumes, the suspense over the narrator the good looking and talented cast all make for a fun and memorable. Ultimately, i think the series leans far too much on sex. i don't think there is anything wrong with a sex scene but it just feels like there are too many of them here. Perhaps to emphasize the scandalous nature of it all??, i don't know but sex is definitely used as a crutch. Still, it is a sight to see… Expand

    Show every sign of having watched one too many episodes of Downton Abbey. ... I felt by the end of the first episode it had delighted me with its presence long enough, and yet … and yet … Was there not, after all, room for just one more? And, perhaps, another after that?

    This is a series which wears its charms on its sleeve from the start and thus has no shame about its desire to beguile and bewitch viewers. It succeeds thanks to creator Chris Van Dusen’s understanding of the material and some smart, spritely scripts from a young female-led writing room.

    This new Shondaland smash, her first for Netflix, is set in 1813 London and features color-blind casting, a mega-sexy star in Rege-Jean Page and enough ravishing romance to take your mind off the latest Covid surge. Get ready to swoon.
